Thailand 2018: A free and easy year-end couple ride...

“Traveling puts things into perspective. It allows us to realize that there are far bigger things than our problems…” 

(The four gentlemen)

Date: 7 – 15 December 2018
Route: KL – Phatthalung – Kui Buri – Phetchabun –Chainat – Samut Songkhram - Chumphon – Krabi – Pak Bara - KL
Total Distance: 4,640km


A few weeks before our planned year-end ride we shared our routing with the gang. Yami/Zue and Fauzilan/CT decided to join us in this trip. Another couple, Ajilong/Sha would be joining us along the way as they started riding a day later.

The first two days we will be riding together with five TCB riders, Mat Put, Zali, Akbar, Pok Deng and Sir Taufik until Kui Buri where we will split ways. The TCB riders will be riding into Cambodia through the Had Lek border and later into Laos through the Stung Treng border.

Riding a motorcycle is exhilarating for many people. One can experience a sense of freedom and adrenaline release while admiring the beautiful scenery along the way. As usual, to make long rides less boring, we visited some attractions along the way to break the monotony and made the journey more interesting. Attractions visited during our trips:

(Route 41, Phatthalung)
(Phu Tubberk Highlands, Phetchabun)
(Route 12, Khao Kho)
(Fantasy Resort, Chai Nat)
(Mae Khlong Train Market, Samut Songkhram)
(Rajabakhti Park, Hua Hin)
(Dan Singkhon Myanmar Border, Prachuap Khiri Khan)
(Rest & Recreation Area, Thap Sakae)
(Isthmus of Kra, Kra Buri Ranong)
(Myanmar is just across the river)
(Samet Nangshe Viewpoint, Phang Nga Bay)
(Khao Tanan and Sunflower Field, Thung Bu Lang)
(Pak Bara Beach, Satun)
